Grounds are the justifications on which a request or objection is based. They are the specific reasons why we disagree with a decision.
Decisions
Decisions are all decisions made by the UWV of which (former) employee and (former) employer are notified by letter.
- Award decision: This is a decision that determines that a benefit, such as the WW, WIA, Wajong, or Sickness Insurance Act, is awarded. It states the conditions, amount of the benefit, and duration.
- Rejection decision: If the UWV decides not to award benefits, the applicant will receive a rejection decision with the reasons for this decision.
- Review decision: If new facts or circumstances come to light, the UWV may review a previous decision. This can be either positive or negative for the benefit recipient.
- Objection or Appeal Decision: After filing an objection to an earlier decision, the UWV issues a new decision, declaring the objection to be well-founded or not. In the case of an appeal to the court, an appeal decision is issued after the ruling.
- Sanction decision: When someone fails to comply with the obligations associated with receiving benefits (for example, not applying for a job while receiving unemployment benefits), the UWV may impose a sanction, such as a reduction or temporary cessation of benefits.
- Disability decision: This refers to the assessment of the degree of disability, as with the WIA (Work and Income according to Labour Capacity Act). It determines the extent to which a person can still work and whether they are entitled to disability benefits.
- Reintegration Decision: Decisions relating to the reintegration obligations of the employer and/or employee. For example, whether an employer has done enough to reintegrate a sick employee.
- Determination Decision: This is a decision in which the UWV makes a final decision on the amount and duration of a benefit after the circumstances have been fully assessed.
- Allowance decision: In some cases, the UWV may provide an allowance, for example in connection with wage loss, where a decision is issued on the amounts awarded.
